They also sell d-limonene as a supplement :

* Food Grade Orange Peel
* Protects the Stomach and Esophagus
* Stimulates Detoxifying Enzymes
* Dietary Supplement

Jarrow Formulas d-Limonene is a volatile oil steam-distilled from orange peel. d-Limonene is the major constituent of several citrus essential oils (orange, lemon and lime) and naturally occurs in citrus juices. d-Limonene promotes upper digestive health by coating the stomach lining and neutralizing acid. Moreover, d-limonene stimulates both Phase I and Phase II detoxifying enzyme systems.

Here is a customer from imminst doing a chat with a rep from www.greenterpene.com:

Julian A: Hello. Welcome to the eoilcolab Ingredient Manager.I will be with you shortly.
Customer52: alright
Julian A: How can I assist you today?
Customer52: I had a couple questions about the high purity d-limonene
Customer52: is that the raw material from florida chemical company?
Julian A: We are a producer and supplier
Customer52: is that 98.5% limonene the same raw material that I see used in dietary supplements?
Julian A: Our products are offered in food grade which always contains a minimum of 95% d-limonene
Julian A: Our high purity product is standardized to contain a minimum of 98-99.9% d-limonene
Julian A: Yes, food grade quality is used for manufacturing supplements
Customer52: is there any reason the high purity product would be inappropriate for that purpose? Does it have any chemicals used in processing or additives?
Julian A: No our d-limonene is pure, it's straight from the Orange Peel, nothing has been added.
Customer52: ok, and secondly do you know what type of plastic is used for the bottles, or the number shown in the recycling symbol on the bottom of the bottle?
Julian A: Are you referring to our packaging?
Customer52: yes, for the 1 gallon bottle
Julian A: If so, which size?
Customer52: the 1 gallon plastic jug/bottle
Julian A: We use HDPE #2, recyclable material
Customer52: ok thank you
Julian A: My pleasure, is there anything else that I can assist you with today?
Customer52: d-limonene happens to be an extremely effective heartburn remedy, 98.5% limonene is the primary ingredient in supplemetns like Enzymatic Therapy Heartburn Free which costs $40 for a month supply
Customer52: Imagine my surprise when I find you selling it by the gallon for less money.
Julian A: Yes, I have seen several old fashioned remedies using d-limonene
Customer52: i understand you market it as a general purpose cleaner and not for human ingestion but I can put 2+2 together
Julian A: There is a gentlemen called the DirtDoctor who is actually an organic gardening expert but lists internal uses for gastrointestinal issues on his site
Customer52: yes I am familiar with his site
Julian A: Way to go, it pays to do some research!
Customer52: well thanks for your help, I mainly wanted to ensure the product had no chemical additives and that it was packaged in a plastic that would not leech into the product
Julian A: No problem, we only supply the real stuff! We also select our packaging very carefully for protection of the d-limonene and for smart consumers like yourself!
Julian A: Have a great weekend.
Customer52: thanks, you too
Customer52: bye

Yep, you can eat it for health purposes :d

We should start converting all the techs to use d-limonene.

I looked and some of these supplements and found some contain 1000 mg of d-limonene. That's a lot more than any tech would have remaining in it. If that amount is safe to ingest, just imagine how safe a d-limonene based DMT tech is.

this is awesome...we need to figure out some ways of removing the product from d-limonene..SWIM would like to see a way to be able to crystallize dmt, jungle, and bufotenine in this stuff...so far...bufotenine wasnt able to crystallize after boiling the d-limonene..but it did become soluble and it did precipitate overnight..and SWIM was able to dry it off to a nice crystalline powder after scraping it up.....so ...get your thinking caps on gentlemen!!

So if it does precipitate, what's the problem then? (no experience with this limonene stuff myself, btw)
